ABOUT THE SHOW

🏅 NOMINEE Hollywood Fringe Award for Comedy
🏅 NOMINEE Adelaide Fringe Exchange Award
After a SOLD OUT RUN at Hollywood Fringe, Woody Fu: One-Man John Wick is on tour and has gone up in Austin TX, Chicago IL, and Toronto ON.
This scripted solo show takes us on the set of John Wick Chapter 5: E Pluribus Unum. Keanu needs the audience’s help to recreate all the hallmarks of this billion dollar franchise: elaborate fight choreography, death-defying stunts, and a plot device called “undeveloped dead wife character.”
More than a parody, Woody Fu: One-Man John Wick goes deeper into Keanu’s psychology. How do we reconcile the contradiction that he is the Nicest Guy in Hollywood, but his movies are insanely violent? Where does his tireless work ethic come from? What are his demons? And also, why is Woody the one exorcising them?
Keanu contains multitudes: Reluctant A-list celebrity. Polite Canadian and action movie star. 40 year acting vet who went from goofy surfer to Clint Eastwood. He loves his fans, does his own stunts, and buys people motorcycles. Let us celebrate The Nicest Guy in Hollywood with a show as weird, earnest, and hardworking as the man himself.
ABOUT WOODY FU
WOODY FU (he/him) is an actor and writer based in Los Angeles. He was selected as a New Face of Comedy by Just For Laughs.
You may have seen him on ABC, CBS, FX, Max, HULU, Comedy Central, Peacock, and Netflix, sharing the screen with Will Ferrell, Ryan Reynolds, Awkwafina, Roy Wood Jr, Molly Shannon, Lisa Kudrow, Amy Schumer, Jack Quaid, and Jon Heder. Coming up, you can see Woody in Vince Gilligan’s highly anticipated AppleTV+ sci-fi series, and recurring in the Amazon show The Runarounds.
How did he get here? Originally from New York, Woody is a veteran of the UCB Theater, where he regularly performed improv, musical improv, sketch and characters. These comedy skills took Woody around the world. From Boom Chicago in Amsterdam, where he created an original sketch revue as the company’s first Asian American actor, to Edinburgh Fringe, where he joined the smash hit institution Baby Wants Candy and the 5-Star parody Thrones! The Musical (he played Jon Snow).
From there, Woody set his sights on creating solo shows. Asian Gracefully was featured in The New York Times, and his characters show Too Many Asians! ran at UCB, and toured Los Angeles and Montreal. Most recently, the award-winning Woody Fu: One-Man John Wick enjoyed a sold-out run at Hollywood Fringe and is prepping for an upcoming tour.
Woody is passionate about creating content that speaks to the Asian American experience, and his digital shorts tackle everything from sexuality, stereotypes, and generational trauma (the fun kind) to toxicity, anime, and inter-Asian racism. They’ve been featured on Vulture, Slamdance, HuffPost and Funny Or Die, and have garnered dozens of laurels at film festivals across the country.
He is a regular contributor to the Onion and co-hosts the Emotional Slut podcast (available on Spotify and Apple).
